Media coverage can amplify your research, expand your professional impact, and open doors to new opportunities. Are you ready when a reporter calls?

This interactive media training workshop, led by the UCR Newsroom team, will equip CE-CERT faculty with the tools and confidence to:

• Translate complex research into clear, compelling language that resonates with non-experts.
• Navigate interviews with confidence and control your narrative.
• Use media engagement to boost your research visibility, expand your professional reach, and strengthen your academic career.
• Recognize how faculty voices elevate UCR’s reputation on national and global stages.

Through a combination of presentation, discussion, and hands-on exercises, participants will leave with practical skills to represent their work effectively — whether in an interview, on a panel, or in response to breaking news.

Why Attend?
Your research deserves to be heard. This workshop will help you share it in a way that connects with broad audiences, attracts opportunities, and positions you as a trusted expert.

This is a hybrid event, though we encourage you to join us in person to get the most out of the workshop - and enjoy coffee with colleagues. ☕
